Dear Mr. President,

It is significant that you are going to Hiroshima as the first sitting U.S. President on the occasion of your visit to Japan to attend the G7 Summit Conference.

As you said in Prague, one nuclear weapon exploded, be it anywhere in the world, would cause catastrophic consequences.

We hope that you take this opportunity to give heed to the testimonies of the Hibakusha, the A-bomb sufferers, to deeply know of the inhumane effect of the nuclear bomb. We call on you from the bottom of our heart to make bold steps forward now to achieve a “World without Nuclear Weapons”, including in particular the commencement of negotiations for a treaty totally banning and eliminating nuclear weapons.

Yours sincerely,

Organizing Committee
